The beanie comes in three versatile sizes, tailored for different head circumferences: 40cm (16 inches), 47cm (18.5 inches), and 54cm (21 inches), ensuring a snug yet comfortable fit for everyone. With an approximate height of 20cm (8 inches), this beanie is designed to not only keep you warm but also to elevate your style.

MATERIALS NEEDED: Depending on the size you choose, the yarn requirements vary. Size 1 requires approximately 90m/100yds of the main colour and 15m/16yds of the accent colour. For Size 2, you will need around 110m/120yds of the main colour and 18m/20yds of the accent colour. Size 3 uses about 120m/130yds of the main colour and 20m/22yds of the accent colour, ensuring the perfect finish for your cozy beanie.

To craft this delightful beanie, you'll need needle sizes: 9mm/size 11 for a 40cm (16 inch) circular needle and 8mm/size 13 for another 40cm (16 inch) circular needle or double-pointed needles (DPNs). This combination will help you achieve the essential stitch integrity for a top-quality product.

GAUGE REQUIREMENT: To ensure that your beanie fits perfectly, aim for a gauge of 11 stitches x 13 rounds in stockinette stitch. This meticulous attention to detail will guarantee a cozy, snug fit that you can wear all season long!
